3 startup launches lined up. Next week we're shipping three product launches back to back at @addmore_studio. That's the part we love. Right now, three founding teams know something the market doesn't. We spent the past weeks turning that into positioning, a brand, website and launch assets that hit on day one. Here's what most founders get wrong about launching: they treat it as a finish line. Build, announce, hope. The launches that actually move pipeline are built like products themselves. Narrative first. Then the proof. Then the moment. That's what the team has been cooking. Founders sitting on a launch date know the feeling. The countdown. The "is the message actually right" doubt at 11pm.

We just shipped the product launch of @bondhq_, and now live on @ProductHunt. Go upvote now. Thank you for the trust @bondwithchloe,@TiboWiels and @FlorSanders. By the way, all animations are designed straight into code. No heavy motion files. Motion built where it ships.

When you treat Belgium's biggest health insurer like a startup. This is the result: DKV Belgium's newest product launch. How do you approach this differently than startups? Not at all. We treat it as a startup. While staying close to their brand book, we created new brand directions and owned the full product launch. Startup mentality isn't about company size. It's about refusing "that's how we've always done it" as strategy. This is what happens when a market leader dares to think outside the box.

@ValentinoGuerra Very nice collab with you

Just wrapped a new product video I'm genuinely proud of. ✅ DKV Nova is DKV's new proactive health platform: a big step for one of Belgium's largest insurers, from reimbursement-only to being there before something goes wrong. Working with addmore.studio I produced the video walkthrough for the launch shown first at the broker reveal event at The National in Sterrebeek, and living on as a landing page hero and broker leave-behind. More exciting product videos coming soon!

For years we jumped from time tracking tool to time tracking tool as a studio. Every year a new one. @toggl. @Clockify. @harvest. @productiveio @teamleader. Whatever the new kid on the block was. Always too much setup. Not a right fit for what we do. Always abandoned after a couple of weeks. Today it just lives as blocks in our calendar. A @NotionDevs worker pulls the data. Done.

Most AI brands still look like machines talking to machines. Dark gradients. Floating interfaces. Abstract intelligence. We went the other way for Wonka. Warmth. Nature. Soft light. A system designed to work alongside people, not replace them. New website live. Positioned, designed and shipped by @addmore_studio.

You don't hire partners. You catch them. Usually years before they have the title. Years of building ++addmore®. A lot of identity crises. Different directions. Different co-founders. Different versions of the studio. For a long time it was mostly me figuring things out in real time. Trying things. Killing things. Surviving phases I thought would end us. One thing became very clear along the way. The projects I truly loved were always startups. That's the stuff that gives me dopamine hits as an ADHD'er. Doing everything "kind of well" was never a strategy. It was just survival. And then two people stopped behaving like employees and started acting like owners. They took big bets with me. Turned down other opportunities. Committed fully. And helped shape the studio through every chaotic phase. So today I'm very proud to announce that Noemi Gonczar and Jens Deryckere are officially joining ++addmore® as partners. Noemi reshaped how we think about positioning, narrative and launching ambitious ideas. She also gave the studio something it never had: a strong female face shaping startups in tech. Jens is one of the craziest builders I know. The kind of guy sending AI workflow brain farts at midnight while cycling, and somehow shipping insane work the next morning. He dragged us from "nice design" into AI-native systems, real innovation, actual building. So ++addmore® is not just me. And that’s exactly what makes this next chapter exciting. We finally have clear service-market fit by repeatedly doing the work we love, getting better at it obsessively and saying no to the things we don’t. Let's go!

We never used slides to present our work. Felt too consultancy. Too generic agency. Not true to who we are. And design was always the bottleneck. Templates? Never survived in practice. Here's the thing as a studio: you can't ship "okay-ish" slides. Every impression matters along the way. Premium or nothing. But design is fully packed. Always. And taste is now the new bottleneck. The least valuable task gets done last. Or not at all. So we flipped it. Our marketing team is now prompting slides themselves. Their ideas, their reasoning, their experiments. Shipped without touching a designer's queue. Design system set. Skills set. MD files set. Shared project working. Suddenly our marketing team needs to know the basics of @github and @vercel to ship their slides directly as a live site. No @powerpoint. No @canva. No @figma Slides. No @fiverr guy migrating decks. Marketers also become builders now. The growth mindset is insane. This isn't AI slop from @Lovable. Not @claudeai Design either. Just a great custom design system from the get-go. Going to share more use cases. We're going AI-native, without selling AI for the sake of selling AI. We embed it in our workflows.

Too many startups treat marketing like a copying game.

Maurice & Nora just raised €1M pre-seed. Glad we got to build the launch together. Designing for the elderly forces you to rethink everything. No jargon. No assumptions. No tricks. Just clarity and storytelling. Btw, most tech startups could learn a lot from designing for their grandparents with zero tolerance for complexity. Proud of what we built. Big thank you Thomas Butstraen Klaas Bals for the trust from day one.

We're hiring one cracked design engineer. The crazy ones who care about the last 5% of a project. Product animations, motion and interactions. The details most teams rush. You've probably shipped things that made founders say: "This is exactly what we had in mind… but way better." Not for everyone. Exactly for someone.

For years, we were the ones working with the tech nerds. Now we became the tech nerds ourselves. We’re rebuilding how @addmore_studio works from the inside out. Since the start of 2026, we're doubling down on becoming an AI-native studio. And we're betting it all on winning with insane quality and taste. Not to ship AI-slop. Not to sell AI because it’s trendy. Not to do more while caring less. But to rethink our operations model. So our best people can deeply focus on their most valuable tasks where AI is not competition. Less time on repetitive work. More time on deep focus. More time to think. To create. To push for insane quality. And use the expertise in our heads. Startups that work with us know its embedded in our workflow. They also expect it. What we did in Q1: - We switched to custom NextJS sites, and started using @sanity_io. Doing less @framer and @webflow. - Found a new way to expand client websites while using @claudeai projects. - We tested every CMS MCP out there. None of them move at the speed of custom. So we removed the "CMS-lock" out of our workflows. - We built design systems in @figma and Claude that the whole team can use. No constant dependency on designers or devs. - Sometimes we skip Figma entirely. And design straight into code. We were all skeptical at first. Even the youngest people on the team had every reason to resist this shift. They didn’t. Thanks for owning the workshop @jederyckere and Ipek. We believe the next generation of winning agencies will not look like agencies. They’ll look like small, sharp, AI-native teams with taste. We're building the teams around that. Curious who else is building in that direction.

@jakubkrehel @paulfaivret smooth

We’ve been spending way too much time on this sidebar with @paulfaivret . We re-structured the Interfere navigation, so we added this subtle animation to transition between the two layers.

@addmore_studio is launching a roast & shoutout series for startup websites. Drop your website in the comments. We’ll record everything and share it publicly. Because most websites: – confuse the user – don’t show the product – lose the deal before the first call even happens And yeah… this is literally what we do all day. Who’s first?

People buy taste. And the definition of taste is evolving. For years it was "we need a nice design." Now founders want storytelling AND great design. Both. At the same time. Every call, they pull up two examples: "This one nails storytelling… but the design is meh." "This one looks insane… but says nothing." You can feel when they're done separately. Because story and design were never built to say the same thing. Building is no longer the bottleneck. Understanding is.

@felixhhaas Appreciate the mention 🙏🏼

I see a lot of founders making the same mistake. They hire the wrong branding partner. Usually a big agency that takes way too long. The best brands I’ve seen don’t come from big agencies. They come from small, sharp teams with super strong taste. Teams that move fast and build with you, not for you. So I curated my go-to list of studios I’d recommend to any early-stage founder building in consumer tech. Built in Lovable. brand-studios.lovable.app
